Volantis is a coastal city in the south of ESSOS. It is the southeast of many free trade city states.

It is located in the Delta Zone on the four inlets of the Ron river.

Because volantis is the earliest colony established by the warelian fortress of freedom, with a long history and strong strength.

Therefore, it is known as "the eldest daughter of Valeria", "the queen of the Ron River", "the hostess of the summer sea" and so on.

Looking down from the clouds, she is located next to a huge Bay. To the north of it is the varana River, a tributary of the Ron river.

The surrounding towns, such as sehoru Town, walisa town and veronces Town, are all under the jurisdiction of volantis.

There is also a main road from volantis to meereen in slave Bay. However, the environment between the two places is bad and too dangerous. People call this section of the main road the "devil's road".

"Volantis is very big. I told you."

"IMON."

A girl with red hair was sitting directly opposite wesselis, gently wiping the dagger in her hand, and then said.

The name of IMON is a pseudonym of wesselis, which is mainly simple and catchy. When asked, he thought of the name at the first time, and then casually claimed to be IMON.

And the 'Dragon Knight' Prince IMON is also widely regarded as the most noble knight so far.

While the girl who wiped the dagger was talking, she was still quietly and carefully observing wesselis's face.

In fact, her face is not very beautiful, just ordinary, but she has a good figure and looks very healthy and vigorous.

The girl sat directly opposite wesselis, surrounded by a bustling crowd, noisy and chaotic, boxing, drinking, loud noise, the floor activity above her head made a creaking sound, and faintly there were women's undisguised groans.

This is a tavern in volantis. It is located on the long bridge and crosses the estuary of the Ron River, linking the two urban areas of volantis.

The long bridge has a very long span and is supported by huge piers. It is flat like a road. It was built by the Valerians in their heyday.

The entrances at both ends of the long bridge are arches built of black boulders, carved with Sphinx, Sphinx, scorpion, dragon and other monsters. The bridge deck is enough for two wagons to pass side by side.

All kinds of buildings have been built on both sides of the long bridge. You can buy almost anything here.

Now wesselis and the girl named MIA dressed as a mercenary eat on the second floor of a tavern on the long bridge.

The consumption level here is not high, so the good and the bad are mixed, gathering a large number of poor people, mercenaries, prostitutes, slaves and sailors from afar.

From the angle where wesselis is now sitting, it can also be seen that the thief's hands and the prisoner's head are placed on a spear on the long bridge below.

"You're right, Mia."

"Volantis is really big."

Wesselis looked at the head just cut off below, still dripping blood, and then was picked on the spear. There was even cheers around.

Then he turned his head and opened his mouth like a joke.

"And the people are fierce."

The man who had just been executed below was not a heinous prisoner, but a runaway slave.

In order to warn other slaves, his master executed him as an example.

The guards around volantis, with tiger patterns on their cheeks, let the slave owner throw away his "property".

"Slaves are part of volantis culture."

Mia just saw the following scene and said without hesitation.

"This has been the case since the time of the warelian freedom fortress. Almost every free citizen has more than five slaves on average."

Of course, the average has always been a rogue.

Poor free citizens can't even afford food, and where can they afford slaves? The slaves owned by big slave owners can almost form a small mercenary regiment.

"Oh."

"Mia, why do you want to explore the varelian ruins?"

Wesselis did not continue the topic, but took a bite of the dishes on the table, then raised his head and asked.

The girl was met by wesselis when he came to volantis a few days ago.

She is a member of a mercenary regiment, code named "Hunter". Her best skill is to quietly come behind the enemy and cut their throats.

The recent Yanhai riot is the hottest topic in volantis. Some people claim that the varelian ruins have become more dangerous, while others think it is the best opportunity to make a fortune.

The secrets and wealth buried in those freedom fortresses will emerge from the ground, and you can make a lot of money by picking up a few things at that time.

Mia thought it was a chance to get rich, so she joined an expedition to varelia. When the expedition was publicly recruited, wesselis volunteered to join it.

The silver haired young man had a handsome face and good skills. He took down the mercenary named "butcher" in two or three times and won the favor of the boss who organized the expedition this time.

So wesselis joined the expedition under the pseudonym of 'IMON'.

After joining the expedition, wesselis knew that the scale of the operation was very large, and the "boss" behind the scenes was even more noble.

He was one of the three consuls of volantis, malajo megoa of the tiger party.

He organized 20 ships of different sizes and an expedition of nearly 1000 people, most of whom were slaves.

There are many mercenaries with dreams, such as Mia and wesselis.

"For money, of course."

"What other reasons can there be besides this purpose?"

Mia heard wesselis's question, looked at him strangely, and then opened her mouth as she should.

"Otherwise?"

"What do you want to do, IMON."

"Of course I'm also for money."

Wesselis leaned back against the back of the back chair.

"Really?"

Mia looked suspiciously at wesselis.

"But I don't think you're a man short of money."

Mia's eyes fell on wesselis's clothes, although wesselis's clothes were also very ordinary and had nothing to show.

But I don't know why "IMON" behaves and gives her the impression that he is a person of noble status and high position all year round. Every word and deed has a special feeling.

"You think too much."

Wesselis only shrugged his shoulders slightly and said naturally in the face of MIA's questioning eyes.

"I'm just not that poor."

"And like adventure, want to see what the varelian ruins look like."
